Korčula je hrvatski otok na Jadranu koji pripada Dubrovačko-neretvanskoj županiji. Na ovom, šestom po veličini hrvatskom otoku, živi oko 16 tisuća stanovnika i jedno je od omiljenih odredišta za turiste diljem svijeta. Iako nije službeno potvrđeno, vjeruje se da je veliki istraživač, Marko Polo rođen upravo na Korčuli.Otok Korčula vjerojatno je bio naseljen još u pretpovijesna vremena. U Veloj spili, jednoj od znamenitosti Korčule, postoje najstariji zabilježeni dokazi o naseljenosti, a oni sežu još u starije kameno doba. Vjeruje se kako je Korčulu osnovao zapravo Antenor i to više od tisućljeća prije Krista. Kroz povijest, uprava se na Korčuli mijenjala pa je tako ovaj otok bio grčki, rimski, ilirski, bizantski i naposljetku slavenski. Za najpoznatijeg stanovnika Korčule smatra se već spomenuti Marko Polo za kojeg postoje zapisi koji svjedoče da je potekao upravo s ovog otoka iako druge lokacije u Europi kao Venecija i Istanbul bez nekih konkretnih dokaza žele prikazati svoje gradove kao gradove rođenja ovog velikog istraživača.Grad je na UNESCO-vom popisu zaštićenosti i sastavni je dio povijesti otoka. Mjesto kulture, povijesti, ljepote i šarma, otok Korčula nudi razne aktivnosti i jedinstvene tradicije postavljene na zadivljujućem Jadranu i blagoslovljene po izvrsnom korčulanskom vremenu.Trajekti i autobusi koji voze iz Dubrovnika i Splita na kopnu dovode posjetitelje na otok Korčulu zajedno s privatnim jedrilicama i katamaranima. Bilo da planirate jednodnevni izlet na otok Korčulu ili ćete ostati nekoliko tjedana, dođite na otok kako biste uživali u skrivenim plažama, šljunčanim i pješčanim obalama, raznim vodenim sportovima i slikovitim pogledima iz svih smjerova.

This island is very appealing and my friends and I really enjoyed the dramatic cliffs and their beautiful alleyways that had an alluring effect. The sunsets were very peaceful ushering in its bustling nightlife. I highly recommend this island to all.

My family came for a vacation and we had to extend our stay because of all the fun we had. I found the beaches on this Island very pleasing especially for my kids who could slide down the sand into the shallow pristine waters.

Korcula Island turned out to be the heavenly destination that I have always been looking for. I especially enjoyed exploring its massive cathedrals and climbing on top of the towers where I got to enjoy stunning views. I can't wait to come back again!

My wife and I had a joyful stay on this pretty island. We especially enjoyed indulging in the wineries. They sold sparkling pink, red and white wine at very low prices. We want to bring all our friends to this island next time.

Korcula island is a very cool place. I and the boys really liked the cycling trips around the island enjoying all its magical sights and cheerful people. We left the island in really high spirits!

My husband and I have always loved ancient civilization architecture. Korcula quenched our thirst as we enjoyed its idyllic old walls, towering buildings, and beautiful gates. Every art lover should really sample this island.
